The Famous Cozy Soup ‘N’ Burger š on Broadway near 8th Street in Greenwich Village has been in business since 1972 and the menu has stayed pretty much the same except for the addition of some health-conscious items. Sadly our friend @newyorknico told us that this family-owned diner is struggling to survive the Coronavirus pandemic lockdown despite having a dedicated outdoor dining area. Our night photo of @thefamouscozysoupnburger with its neon sign aglow is from 2009 & appears in our book “New York Nights” along with a preface written by @newyorknico ‘s father @thedailyheller
• WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT to help save another historic neon sign at the family-owned NYC music school/shop, Palomba Academy of Music, which was forced to close after 64 years in business due to the Coronavirus pandemic shutdown. We are currently filming a documentary about Palomba Academy of Music and our efforts to save its historic neon sign.
